Mullvad still works perfectly well for torrents, I'm downloading and seeding torrents now as of typing this.

It just won't work well for certain types of torrents and certain private trackers and things like that.

It does suck they took away that feature but I understand why they did it.

That's a good point I forgot to mention as well, thanks!

I know a lot of bullet proof hosts used to be in The Netherlands but now I'm not too sure about that bc I hear they're cracking down on copyright.

For piracy I really do not see the appeal of self-hosting a VPN.

If you really must self host a good VPN like Mullvad (or even windscribe as you mentioned) can be ran even on a webserver to tunnel all of your torrent traffic through, deluge is incredibly easy to setup to run only over mullvad.

Almost any hosting company is going to send you angry emails when downloading public torrents, some may even terminate your services without warning then refuse to talk to you after the fact (looking at you contabo).

If you really want to host your own server for this I recommend looking for a “bulletproof” webhosting service, people running those services will just ignore letters from copyright holders.

seems to be down for me too. I keep getting an error that the server is redirecting too many times, I wonder if they're undergoing a DDOS attack or something like that.

I've really enjoyed playing Pokemon Unbound. Its a very well put together rom hack with a unique story and up to gen 8 Pokemon I believe.

france and these supposed "french" people are one of the greatest fabrications of all time.

No one can convince that france is real 😤😤😤

There's now also a NSFW community here on Lemmy.world.

https://lemmy.world/c/NSFW

give it a try as long as you're 18 and not at work 😉

(you may also need NSFW toggled on within your account and or Lemmy app.)

Shhhhh.... It's okay these nice little pills will make these "frens" of yours go away.

That's right! I even post when I'm sleeping.

I'm doing my part!

Are you?

I should have mentioned I was talking specifically about Windows 10 LTSC version. I have that on one machine only for my fiancée to use, I was definitely able to uninstall edge on that so that Firefox would be the only option.

You can uninstall the newest version of edge in Windows. The newer edge is chromium based and it seems you can remove it now. However the previous version of edge that was built into windows could not be removed with traditional methods.

It's pretty useful. You can upload almost anything up to 200mb in size. It's normally pretty fast too and unlike places like Imgur they don't explicitly disallow NSFW.

Misato face down in that purple drink. Rip.

Lmao. This is great, reddit seems to be progressing their death spiral at an even greater rate now.

It's not quite the same but at least for RARBG I've found TorrentGalaxy (torrentgalaxy . to) to be good place for torrents now.

The magic smoke needs to stay inside your computer.

If the magic smoke gets released from your computer please contact your local service center.

There's always a relevant XKCD, isn't there?

This reminds me of my favorite (slightly off topic) https://xkcd.com/705/

I've broken my bootloader many times. I remember frantically looking up how to fix that online for the first time. Now I know not to do stupid things that could bork my bootloader.

That's right! By worshipping the almighty penguin he gives us the power to make our expensive computers into useless novelty items.

That was one of my main missing subreddits.

Hopefully activity will pickup, seeing as this Lemmy community doesn't discourage piracy and file sharing as much as its Reddit form, it should hopefully take off.
